I definitely had a kettle in my cabin on the Sky TA last November. And being a Brit, I took along a box of YorkshireTeabags. I was in a deluxe balcony. And the dress code for formal nights was as diverse as ever. Always wonderful to watch.

Following- I’m booked on this for next year. Your hotel looks lovely- certainly better than where I stayed this time!

2 and 3 for me. Although I enjoyed Marseille, Genoa and La Spezia very much, I find Gibraltar underwhelming, plus all the sea days are at the beginning of the week. Weeks 2 & 3 have an interesting mix of ports and you get a sea day towards the end of week 3 which definitely helps when it comes to packing! Plus you could then stay on a few days in Barcelona. whichever you decide is right for you, I hope you enjoy visiting Europe

As I understand from previous posts, the gratuities aren’t included for Australia and New Zealand bookings; the headline price of the bundle is lower to reflect this. If booking from UK, USA, Canada the gratuities are in the bundle

The only time Princess was busy at check in for me was when we had to wait to hand the car over for parking. that took a while, but once we were out of the car it was no more than 15 minutes to get on the ship. It was the same when I sailed with X and RCL - dropping the car off took longer than check in!

If you really want to watch full coverage of the Olympics, why not put save up and do the UK cruise next year? Maybe the extra savings will pay for the balcony and the Plus package. There’s so much to see in our part of the world, it’d be so sad to spend it trying to find screens showing the sport. I often take holidays to avoid sporting events 😆

No, just paper, app or the screens round the ship. I never saw a QR code when I was on Sky last November.

You can see everything on the Princess app

Following along - I’ll be boarding next week in Barcelona 😎

Ken, thanks for sharing your trip with us. It always makes me happy when I see you starting a new ‘Live From’ post. Safe home now & looking forward to seeing a new post in July

It’s always a possibility but, then again so is greyness and drizzle. Be an optimist & bring the cossie!

As a Brit, anything over 20C is shorts weather 😎😆 (that’s 68F) In theory July should be at least that. And it sometimes is for, ooh maybe, a week, Layers. Definitely layers. And a sneaky pair of shorts just in case.

FYI, this tour is still available but is now priced at $114!

And just like that - it’s back. Sadly nothing wonderful happened.

Thanks for checking. Maybe something wonderful is happening in mine 😂
